The season is two weeks away, and it's time for the Fourth Annual Commissioner's Cup, the most prestigious and longest consecutively held Titan prediction contest in the nation. Defending champion HS Scout says, "nothing in my life has matched the thrill of claiming the Commissioner's Cup. I didn't cross it off my bucket list--that was my bucket list." Bacari Alexander says, "if only I weren't coach, I could play." Make your picks for the questions below.

All entries due by 5:00 p.m ET, Friday, Nov. 10. You can send predictions to me privately or post them in this thread. At the end of the year, the Commissioner's Cup, a lovely styrofoam cup with the word "Champion" written on it in indelible magic marker, will have added to it the name of the winner, alongside the names of past champions.

By the way, the over/under on Joseph Schiele is 6 years. Take the over. Current jurisprudence tends towards "making examples". I agree with Tacitus that he's probably looking at a solid 7. On the bright side, he'll have a job to go back to; OU is big on second chance projects.

LOL, that's true about OU and second chances. They will probably make him dean of the business school upon return. Your tax dollars at work!
